Neurological physical therapy is a form of therapy that is focused on working with people who have a type of neurological disorder or disease.The types of neurological disabilities approached by this form of physical therapy might include ALS, alzheimer's disease, cerebral palsy, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke, or spinal cord injuries. Common types of impairments associated with neurologic conditions can include balance, vision, ambulation, movement, activities of daily living, speech, or loss of functional independence.Neurological Reparative Therapy (NRT) is a new model of treatment synthesized from a compilation of literature and research on how to better the lives of individuals who suffer from a wide range of mental, emotional, and behavioral disturbances - particularly children and adolescents.Physical therapy is very important for people who have previously experienced, or currently have a neurological disease or injury. A person's spinal cord and brain control both their sensations and their movement. An injury to a person's brain or spinal cord may cause death of cells which control specific movements and sensations, leading to loss of function. Physical therapy can help to prevent loss of function, helping a person to remain able to perform certain activities. Should a person decide to pursue decreased activity instead, they may also experience additional health problems that can include lung or heart problems, decreased independence, diabetes, and an overall reduction in their quality of life.
